HOME
We are a Sunshine Coast group that advocates for just and compassionate treatment of refugees, consistent with the human rights standards which Australia has developed and endorsed.
We support policies towards refugees and asylum seekers that reflect respect, decency and traditional Australian generosity to those in need, while advancing Australia’s international standing and national interests.
HOSPITALITY AND SUPPORT
We make friends with refugees and asylum seekers living in south east Queensland, exchanging visits and phone calls, offering practical support as needed.
COMMUNITY EDUCATION
We seek the truth about refugees and asylum seekers in Australia, and we make this public in different ways including offering talks to schools and community groups.
LOBBYING AND ADVOCACY
We lobby our politicians, and use media publicity to advocate for just and compassionate treatment of refugees and asylum seekers.
